RIP Alan Rickman

Description

Yesterday morning, I awoke to the news that one of my favorite actors, Alan Rickman, passed away from cancer at his home in London. He was one month shy of his 70th birthday.

I have been in tears on and off since then. How many more lives will cancer claim before a cure is found? How many more families will be devestated by this disease?

Lemmy Kilmster, David Bowie and now Alan. My heart is broken, more so due to the fact that my father and grandfather, and my aunt have all died from some form of cancer in the past 20 years as well. I know this pain.

He was more than just Professor Snape and Hans Gruber. Marvin. Metatron. Sheriff of Nottingham. Shakespearean theater. But most of all he was a serious comedic actor who made everyone smile just by being in the room.

This is my tribute to the actor who was simply a man doing what he loved.

My condolenses to his family and friends, and the world in general. He was one of a kind.
